    I took my wife here for her birthday. It was the first time either of us have been and it was Phenomenal. The food was amazing and the drinks were great. Our serve was Briana and she was extremely attentive and knowledgeable about both the menu and drinks. She gave great suggestions and made sure we were taken care of. She definitely helped make the experience better with how accommodating she was with everything. My wife loved it and they even gave us a more secluded table so we could have our own little corner to ourselves. We will definitely be going back!

    Zoe is #1. She is the reason I return to Nobu DC. I love seeing her and enjoying the conversation, the passionate stories, accepting her recommendations and just embracing her kindness. I’m very blessed and grateful for her friendship. Also I want to recognize Benjamin-he has a lot to offer the world. I hope that he continues to aspire for greatness beyond what the mind can imagine. God’s speed ahead. Thank you all for a great night.
